Some old <br />Chinese guy <br /> <br />wrote that <br />a poet <br /> <br />“Only suffers <br />writing poems...” <br /> <br />“...better...” <br />(he observed) <br /> <br />“...to spend your time <br />learning to fly.” <br /> <br />And so <br /> <br />“...concentrating <br />the sea of Heaven <br /> <br />in the inch space <br />of the heart...” <br /> <br />I fly. <br /> <br />I fly! <br /> <br />· * * <br />· <br />(Apologies to Meng Chiao & Wang Ch’ang Ling) <br /> <br />For Angie ‘cos she can <br />soar above everything and everyone. <br /> <br />And oh... she’s such a sweetheart.<br /><br />Dónall Dempsey<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/learning-to-fly-for-dearest-darling-angie/
